East to West Costa Rica Vacation of Romance & Luxury: Caribbean Sea to Pacific Coast

Welcome to San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica. The city resides in the Central Valley and contains the country’s heart and soul. The culture from around Costa Rica has settled in San Jose, creating a bustling melting pot of cuisine, atmosphere, and history. Colonial mansions line the streets of Barrio Aranjuez. Elegant hand-carved woodwork adorns the facades and porches wrap around the raised entryways. Your private transfer meets you at the airport and escorts you to a fabulous hotel that balances a central location with elegant seclusion.

The central market is an entire city block and houses over 200 shops, stalls, and restaurants. Narrow lanes divide the vendors by goods, from wood carvings to produce. Bananas hang down in decadent bunches. Large watermelons tempt you from their display. The sweet and citrusy aromas of star fruit linger in the air. In the evening, share a romantic meal over candlelight at the Restaurante Grano de Oro. Their sea bass fillet is breaded with toasted macadamia nuts and served with a zesty light orange herb sauce. After the first crunchy and juicy bite, you will find indulgence and perfection in Costa Rica’s Central Valley.
